Rep. Adam Schiff spoke to the press after leaving the meeting. “As we look at these investigations, number one, the President of the United States should not be inviting Russia into the G7 or G8, um we should be considering what sanctions are appropriate to deter Russia’s malign activities not further ingratiating Russia into the community of civilized nations.”

In a report by popular political news analyst site The Hill, Senator Todd Young of Indiana pointed out that “every single member, Republican and Democrat alike, of the Senate Select Committe on Intelligence is aware, should have been aware of the intelligence that I was briefed on.”

Trump and his administration have been backpedaling a claim that the President was never briefed on these allegations.

Evidence suggests that the information was detailed in President Trump’s Daily Brief, but the president is notorious for not reading these briefs. He chooses instead to receive verbal information from intelligence officials in sporadically scheduled briefings.
